I'm not a native speaker, but shouldn't it be "He has risen" or something?

Yes, but the saying, I think, refers to the quotation of what the angels said to Mary and the others who went to the tomb.
I'll wait for someone more bible-literate than me can elaborate.

From the Bible:
"And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay. And go quickly, and tell his disciples that he is risen from the dead; and, behold, he goeth before you into Galilee; there shall ye see him: lo, I have told you." Matthew 28:5-7 KJVA more secular explanation: "The statement is the equivalent of "Christ has risen" and is stating a present-perfect fact. It's stating an eternal truth that not only did he rise all those years ago, but he remains risen now. That is, not just "he has risen" but "he is risen" and risen is closer to being an adjective than a pure participle."

Sorta like "Think different," vs "Think differently."

"he is risen"
I think risen could be a past tense verb and His current condition.
This discussion will be more widespread after the next presidential election.

God or Mr. Trump?
But then, sometimes it is hard to see the difference.

Not toast, but I had leaf Jesus just outside of my kitchen window a couple of years ago.
